My director has suggested that I do an O.H. or a M.H. show for my new neighborhood.
I thought this would be great during this or next month, but I just don't understand how to do this.
I am in a brand new community in my town, and there are about 30 houses in this little track, and thought it would be great for all of us to get together and meet each other, but how do you do it w/ PC?
I am just not grasping the idea for some reason.
Like, I would invite everyone over to "Meet your neighbor" but have a PC show at the same time, and expect people to buy.

Can someone please help me wrap my brain around this...PLEASE!!!!
I think I feel like I am finding a way to shove my business into thier faces, and I don't like that...
OK, enough rambling (I am sick and dilerious today:D )
 
Do a search on Mystery Host, there's lots of into out here.
 
For an Opne House, just set up an area in your home as a display for your PC items, and have some samples available for the guests too. You can do a quick demo during the OH if you want, but don't necessarily have to. Just invite people to come by and meet you and your family and to check out the products too. Have catalogs and orderforms available for them in case they (hopefully) want to place an order. You can even do a prize drawing. Have everyone fill out the drawing slips and draw a prize winner soometime during the open house. The prize can be anything, a sample packet of herbs, a Season's Best, or a discount.

Good luck!
